Once upon a time, I headed off to Simmons University as a pre-med major. Mmhmm, I know. Seeing as I'm not in a white coat, you can assume there's a plot twist coming. To fill general education requirements, I found myself in "The Poetry of Photography" course by Vaughn Sills - a 35mm B&W film class. Two classes and I was done -- I ended up double majoring in Studio Art and Communications with double minors in Graphic Design + Photography from Simmons, which I LOVED. I was a TA for the darkroom lab for three years (with the coolest people on earth that I miss dearly) and to this day, my bucket list includes a fully loaded darkroom. After a quick stint in the corporate world, specifically marketing dead fish (I'm not kidding haha), I moved back to my home state of Maine, fell in love with free parking, wide open spaces, small town vibes and my husband. In 2015, fate literally led me to the door of the King's Hill Inn & Barn; I was dropping of photo business cards and knew it was a one of a kind place. My family saw the same potential in it and five years later, here I am! 

I live for yard sales, working on renovating our house into a real woods cottage, breakfast dates and writing lots and lots of lists. My favorite days include floating on my parent's lake, snacking on my my dad's potato salad and the dogs being in the water 98% of the time. My work and honestly, most of my life, is greatly inspired by nature, the history of truth and fables over time, fantasy and artworks by the minds that came before us.

If you've read this far and you're not bored, YOU SHOULD SAY HI and get coffee sometime!
